“I believe that everyone has certain key moments in their lives they’ll never forget. Moments marking the beginning or end of something. Moments that will always own a little piece of you. You can track decisions you make or paths your life follows and they always lead back to one of these defining moments. This is one of them.”
― Nyrae Dawn, Four Summers

“What is it about stars that you love so much?â€� he asks.
That answer comes quickly. “Because they’re infinite. They’re miracles, and anything is possible when you look out into the massive space that goes on and on.â€� Because I want that. I want to explore and see what’s out there and feel as free as those stars in the sky.”
― Nyrae Dawn, Four Summers

“Your past doesn't have to dictate who you are, but it can help you discover who you're meant to be.”
― C.M. Stunich, Broken Pasts

“I think…if things were different. If we were closerâ€� You’d be it for me, Star Girl. Is that stupid to say? That I think I could love you?”
― Nyrae Dawn, Four Summers

“We’ve grown and changed, screwed up, but at the beginning of each summer, we found each other again. Or maybe we never really lost each other.”
― Nyrae Dawn, Four Summers

“All those other summers and those other kisses and everything else we shared, my dad choosing some random lake in some random town to stay in one year, the fights and the screw ups that helped us learn and gave us experiences with other people. They were all meant to happen, and our paths were supposed to cross over and over again. Until we found that point, the bright star in the summer sky that would be ours forever.”
― Nyrae Dawn, Four Summers

“The stars here and the ones there are each special for their own reason. You grew up looking at these, while I looked at mine. Now we’ve both looked at each of them together.”
― Nyrae Dawn, Four Summers

“You better be careful, I've got a ladle. You never know what a trained killer can do with an innocent-looking kitchen utensil.
I don't think you're a trained killer.
So should I be insulted that you think I'm an amateur killer?”
― Eileen Cook, Unraveling Isobel

“John Mandrake was an attractive young man, and the scent of power hung about him, sweet and intoxicating, like honeysuckle in the evening air.”

“I'm not afraid,â€� I said, reminding myself and also putting the house on notice just in case.

― Eileen Cook, Unraveling Isobel

“There was no doubt about it. I was falling for my stepbrother. Long term this would likely result in my ending up on a tacky daytime talk show with other people who had an unnatural love for their relatives.”
― Eileen Cook, Unraveling Isobel

“Forgive me. It was stupid of me to think you might need company, when clearly all you required was that decanter.â€�

“It was not stupid. It was very kind. Quite soft, actually. A very warm, womanly gesture. I am touched.â€� He smiled softly. “However, if you truly want to help, if you really want to distract me, there are better ways. When I saw that dress, I dared hope you had realized that.”
― Madeline Hunter, Lady of Sin

“Quietly, she asked, “Would you have done the same for me? I think you would have.â€�

― Margaret Rogerson, Sorcery of Thorns

“I'm sorry," he said and his voice was neutral this time, almost too neutral. "But you'll be safest if I maintain my position here."

And you're trying the limits of my self-control, I thought. You can't just throw me a few clues and then take it all back. I will figure you out, I swear it.

"Suit yourself," I said and then paused. "I'd rather have you behind me anyway."

How's that for a little sexual innuendo?”
― C.M. Stunich, Broken Pasts

“I stilled. I was sure I'd imagined that all too familiar voice, but there he was. His bright blue eyes saying far more than his words ever could. His iris' held pain and anger and my shame increased tenfold. How foolish I was to think what I'd done would matter to him, or how his reaction would mean so much to me.”
― Freedom Matthews, Inherited
